Hello everyone, just recently got L4D on the Xbox 360 and I have to say I am frustratingly annoyed. I remember reading the news that to play online on the Xbox, Valve was going to setup dedicated servers to play, and I thought that sounded awesome. It's turned out to be a disaster for me and my friends as the dedicated servers are all in America(I'm assuming) and we are all in Australia! We all have to join and American server to play together and the lag is unbearable, and we disconnect frequently. I've researched a little and it seems there is no way to play peer-to-peer, which would solve the lag issues for us and make the game perfect. Is there any chance Valve will update the game to accomodate those people not living in America? Has anyone else experienced these problems? Cheers.:o

Do these forums have modatrators? A few answers to this dire situation would be nice. Or my copy goes into a second hand self and someone buys that over a new copy.

Well a lot of people are having this problem. My way of dealing with it? creating.. quiting... creating.. quiting.. creating... quiting... until the game decides to let me local host.
